I was happy to hear you discuss &quot;adultolescence&quot; on NPR's
&quot;Marketplace&quot; a couple days ago, Lori. Great little essay you gave.

Thanks, Cynthia, for the shameless plug! <br /><br />I'll be curious to see who comes to the San Francisco and Palo Alto
signings...I've received emails from several of the book's contributors
saying they'll stop by. All WELL folks are also welcome :)

I think Jon's post makes a great deal of sense.
Thank you, Jesse and Lori, for your responses and for this wonderful work.
I'd also like to thank the Inkwell team (David, Jon and Cynthia) for setting
up the interview and asking me to participate.

Perhaps the 'new economy' succeeded where it wasn't 'new,' i.e. where
models and assumptions were grounded in economic reality. And I agree
that by some measures of success, we were wildly successful -ge.g. where
innovation is a measure of success.

David,<br /><br />That article certainly does illustrate that more dotcoms &quot;succeeded&quot;
than people think, but I'm a bit suspect of the assumptions:<br /><br />1) Excluding firms that went to an IPO and then crashed skews the
numbers.
2) I know that we're comparing this number to the benchmark of 15%,
but I imagine that benchmark of 15%, but that 15% is over the last 7
years. So, I imagine that the comparative %s for 1999 and 2000 are wel
below that. So, the 22% and 18% in 99 and 2000 look a lot worse.
3) What does it mean to succeed? Is DrudgeReport included in there?
Probably not. Is a company hanging on as a shell of its former self
considered a success? <br /><br />I guess my point is that I, too, believe that the New Economy was more
of a success than people give it credit for. Both, economically and
sociologically. Numbers such as those are certainly helpful, but seem
a bit tainted to me.

Hey, all I do is unlock the door in the morning and make sure there are fresh
towels in the green room.<br /><br />And again, there's no need to sign off: please continue if you're so
inclined!
